Centos 6.3 crashes(Freezes) without slowing down first
Kernel version is 2.6.32-279.19.1.el6.x86_64
It crashes after 5 , 10 , 15 minutes I dont know sometimes after 2 hours, sometimes after 1 or 2 days working fine, I have no idea... It doesn't slow down and then crash, it just stop responding to mouse and KB and that's how I know it is frozen again and then I force shutdown :( Often even if RAM usage is 1% ... no processes :D Sometime it happens EVEN IF I DONT RUN OR DO ANYTHING, EVEN IF I JUST TURN IT ON AND LEAVE IT BE !!!! Sometimes it works for 2 3 days perfectly and then Again Faulty BAD DAY :((( Without any pattern !! or Rule , I can't understand! Please share your ideas and experience this is the last symptoms seen using Tail -f /var/log/messages , Error and Kern [root@Workstation-B]# tail -f /var/log/error Jan 4 13:39:41 Workstation-B mcelog: mcelog read: No such device Jan 4 13:39:42 Workstation-B abrtd: Init complete, entering main loop Jan 4 13:39:43 Workstation-B libvirtd: Could not find keytab file: /etc/libvirt/krb5.tab: No such file or directory] Jan 4 13:56:57 Workstation-B automount[2450]: lookup_read_master: lookup(nisplus): couldn't locate nis+ table auto.master Jan 4 13:56:57 Workstation-B mcelog: failed to prefill DIMM database from DMI data Jan 4 13:56:57 Workstation-B mcelog: mcelog read: No such device Jan 4 13:56:58 Workstation-B abrtd: Init complete, entering main loop Jan 4 13:57:00 Workstation-B libvirtd: Could not find keytab file: /etc/libvirt/krb5.tab: No such file or directory Jan 4 14:03:21 Workstation-B pulseaudio[3470]: pid.c: Daemon already running.

This type of problem is typically a hardware issue. Have you added / changed any RAM lately? Are all your fans running with temperatures at reasonable levels (never higher than 70C)?

Dear macemoneta Thanks a lot 4 Ur quick reply :D Can the problem be by any chance because of the sound card? snd module !!! pulseaudio thing happens a lot in the LOGS !!! I really Appreciate it if you helped me on this problem, Its bugging me so much :( Cheers |
The pulseaudio messages are not fatal. The radeon ring buffer overflow is generally not fatal. I would suggest trying a newer kernel. If a newer kernel isn't available from CentOS, pull one from Fedora - 3.6.11 is the current stable kernel there.

I ran "YUM UPDATE" 2 weeks ago as The crashes start to bug me, After that I guess the error regarding libvirtd: Could not find keytab file: /etc/libvirt/krb5.tab: No such file or directory] made its first appearance in my LOGS I guess. The workstation sometimes Works Fine like it fixes itself, but sometimes No matter what It crashes after even 8 or 10 minutes after startup or sometimes takes a little longer to crash ( 1 2 hr) no certain pattern or explanation. I will try dig into this kernel thing but I really appreciate it if U can let me know How to make sure if I can use Centos kernel or how can I bring it from fedora if centos os N/A. Tnx A million Macemoneta I hope Ur tips finally solve this thing out :-bd |
